    That's great Simone! Looking forward to see your ideas of decorations! Smiley smile

    You should have a look at our vendors in Manitoba to see if you can find the perfect marquee for your reception venue.

    Thanks Emilie, the posts have given me more ideas for the ceremony. I browsed around and saw some decoration ideas for the ceremony. If can get access to a marquee, I would like to use it for the reception.
